El Centro / ECVI

El Centro is a Latino non-profit advocacy organization whose mission is to enhance the socio-economic status of the Greater Lorain County community by providing essential social, educational, cultural, and community development services.

Engage with El Centro through Oberlin's El Centro Volunteer Initiative, more commonly known as ECVI! El Centro Volunteer Initiative is a student-run program that connects Oberlin College students, faculty, and community members with Latinx residents in Lorain through community engagement. Information on how to join this student group for the 25-26 school year will be posted soon!
